Throughout sports, so much gear and advice for women is simply a slightly edited version of a design built from men’s needs— “shrink it and pink it,” as the saying goes. Rose Physical Therapy Group in Washington, DC, invited cyclist and author Molly Hurford to share some of the pain-free cycling tips covered in her book, Saddle, Sore, alongside Peter Glassford of Smart Athlete Coaching. Hurford researched doctors, physical therapists, waxers, apparel and component designers, and other professionals to write her book that dispels rumors and disseminates facts. Here, Women’s Adventure presents some of the best information Hurford has to offer.
